    To me Floyd seemed a little off with offense. He wasn't connecting on punches he normally would . As far as floyds defense goes, look he walked straight ahead all night that made McGregor look good by connecting with a few punches. Floyd had to make this fight look good for the sake of the public and said that many times prior to the fight .

      CoWard was quick to throw Flroid under the bus. Must have been some affinity for McNugget's "low blow" that drew admiration?

        This headline is misleading. I saw this statement live. Ward wasn't being very critical at all. He was actually praising Floyd. This write up, takes that comment way out of context.

        This is an example of trying to spin a quote into something it's not. Poor form, but what should I expect from the author who won't even use his real name?
        You are correct. This is how media works & fans eat it up like a bunch of fools.

            I am not a fan of Floyd, but it was obvious that Floyd was letting Conor do his thing. The fight was going to last as long as Floyd wanted it to. He could have ended the fight in under 4 rounds if he wanted. Put Conor in with a killer like Errol Spence it would be an absolute bloodbath!

              Ward is the most cerebral guy in the sport to date... but also jealous about Floyd... as many others...

                ... don't you remember that it was Ward who labelled him as "lil' Floyd"???

                  Did Ward think MAC landed a low blow or was it a borderline shot???

                    Mayweather was just having some fun in there. He doesnt need to showcase his technical abilities anymore so why should he ?
